Information

Tabloid editor

As the editor of The Paragon Tattler, Harvey Maylor is a man always looking for a story. After all, when the Paragon Times is reporting on the giant demon roaming the old Astoria cemetery, what's left for a tabloid to print? Harvey fulfills his journalistic responsibilities by leaning heavily on the broad shoulders of his hero friends. Hero-authored columns sell papers, and photos of super-powered shenanigans make a great front page. He's willing to accommodate his hero sources, either putting them in the spotlight or carefully protecting their identities. As a result, he usually has a claim on the strangest scoop in town.

Find Ellie Weissman

Briefing

I need your help desperately! One of my reporters has been kidnapped! Her name's Ellie Weissman, and she's a real sweet girl. Young, smart, talented. I've known her since she was a kid. Her apartment was ransacked by the Carnival this morning, and there's no sign of her anymore! Will you help me find Ellie? If anything happens to her, I'll never be able to look her father in the eye again.

Ellie was working on a feature about mystical artifacts. I don't know if that's what she set the Carnival off, but you should head over to the Tattler and take a look at her notes.

Mission Objective(s)

A picture of a startingly young Harvey Maylor beams at you from the wall.

  • Defeat all carnies in office
  • Find Ellie's notes

You defeated the Carnival and found Ellie Weissman's notebook.

Clue: Ellie's appointment calendar

This appointment calendar lists several appoointments in Ellie's neat, crisp shorthand. The final meeting is circled in red pen. It reads:

Percy Winkley Secret Library Wear comfortable shoes.

Debriefing

I just broke the news about Ellie's disappearance to her parents; let me tell you, that was rough. I can't even get worked up about the Tattler office being trashed. I just want to find my reporter! Maybe that appointment calendar you found can help us pick up her trail.

Ask Maria Jenkins about the secret library

Briefing

According to this appointment calendar you found, Ellie met with a Percy Winkley right before she was kidnapped. Perhaps this Ms. Winkley can tell us more about the situation. Trouble is, the only address we have is 'secret library'. I think I know someone who may be able to clear up that mystery. Will you go ask Maria Jenkins about the secret library? She's been around the block a few times; she knows more than most people might guess.

I appreciate your help. We're like a family at the Tattler; if we can't find Ellie, things will never be the same.

Mission Objective(s)

  • Talk to Maria Jenkins

Maria Jenkins: Normally, I'd never divulge the secret of the Midnight Squad's underground library. But I've heard good things about you. I'll tell you where it is, but I expect you to keep this information private.

Mission Objective(s)

You've heard that the Midnight Squad has a network of secret libraries hidden beneath the city. Their resources are truly staggering.

  • Find Percy Winkley

You rescued Percy Winkley from the Carnival of Shadows!

Clue: Percy Winkley's story

When you rescued Percy Winkley from the Carnival of Shadows, he told you:

'Yes, Ellie Weissman interviewed me for her article on ancient artifacts. Ninety percent of her material was bunk, but she was convinced that she had a real story. She kept asking me for details on the Bands of Shu. my friends, the Bands are nothing but a pair of old copper bracelets! They have no mystical power whatsoever!'

'I can't enlighten you about the Carnival's motives, but I may be able to help you find your friend. Here's a mental monocle. It can read whatever thoughts are uppermost in another's mind; I usually break it out for laughs at parties.'

Clue: Mental monocle

This fascinating device is one of the Midnight Squad's many strange artifacts. While wearing it, you can read the uppermost thoughts in a person's mind.

Debriefing

So, Ellie was asking about these Bands of Shu before she was kidnapped, eh? I wonder if they might be more powerful than the Midnight Squad realizes. I'll bet anything the Carnival kidnapped Ellie to keep her from learning more about the Bands. Now that you have that mental monocle, maybe we can get her back.

Question the carnies about the missing reporter

Briefing

Thanks to Percy Winkley's mental monocle, we should be able to get some straight answers out of the Carnival. The monocle will allow you to read whatever thoughts are uppermost in the Carnies minds. So just keep questioning them about my missing reporter, and don't stop until you find an answer! You can usually find carnies making mischief on Peregrine Island.

As soon as we get Ellie back safely, we can find out more abouther investigation into the Bands of Shu. I'm certain that's what prompted the Carnival to go after her!

Mission Objective(s)

  • Question carnies about Ellie
  • Defeat 65 Carnies

You were able to pluck Ellie's current location from the mind of one of the carnies.

Debriefing

Thank heaven, you did it! You found out where the Carnival's keeping Ellie! Now you just have to go in there and get her out!

Rescue Ellie

Briefing

We've got all the information we need. It's time to stop pussyfooting around. I want you to get over to that Carnival hideout and rescue Ellie. I'l be counting the minutes unti you're back.

Ellie got into trouble by investigating a stroy for my paper. That makes me responsible for her safety.

Mission Objective(s)

Your trained nose detects a subtle aroma of Chanel No. 5.

  • Rescue Ellie Weissman

You rescued Ellie Weissman from the Carnival of Shadows.

Clue: Ellie Weissman's story

When you rescued Ellie Weissman from the Carnival of Shadows, she told you:

'Nobody takes the Tattler seriously, but sometimes we come up with some amazing stories. Like the Bands of Shu. Even the Midnight Squad didn't believe that they have the power to transport a human being to the psychic plane. But I did some checking, and it's all true! It's a complicated ritual, but I believe it can be done!'

Debriefing

I don't know how to thank you enough for rescuing my reporter. Ellie's safe at home now, and I don't think I've ever been more grateful. She's got a lot to tell us about her investigation into the Bands of Shu. She seems to think they might be instrumental in taking on the Carnival.

Get the Bands of Shu from the Malta Group

Briefing

You have my eternal gratitude for rescuing Ellie from the Carnival of Shadows. She's told me a lot about her investigation into the Bands of Su, and from what she says, there's a good chance the Bands coud help us defeat the Carnival of Shadows. There's only one problem. The Bands are currently held by the Malta Group; they're among the many artifacts the group has locked up for study. I need you to go and get them.

The Malta Group wants to control anyone and anything with even the merest whiff of super powers. Don't underestimate them.

Mission Objective(s)

The Malta Group's alarm system is subtle, but you notice the click as the security camera zooms in on your face.

  • Recover the Bands of Shu

You found the Bands of Shu!

Clue: The Bands of Shu

According to Percy Winkley, these ancient Egyptian bracelets are of no interest to anyone but archaeologists. The Band's carvings have a certain charm, and your eye is drawn to one figure seated upon a throne. Her hands are lifted above her head; draped over them is the star-studded body of the goddess Nut, who represents the sky.

Debriefing

My, those Bands certainly are unique. Kind of pretty, too. Ellie's been looking into them, and she thinks they may help us take the fight to Vanessa DeVore where she really lives: on the psychic plane!

Empower the Bands of Shu

Briefing

I'm impressed. YOu managed to get te Bands of Su away from those Malta goons. The trouble is, right now, they're useless. In order to take you to the psychic plane, the bands ave to be empowered. Ellie's researched the ritual involved, but it's going to be a toughie.

First, you'l need to bring the bands into contact with a powerful, but primitive creature. That should anchor you in this reality, so you don't lose yourself on the psychic plane. Then, you'll need to bring them into contact with an extra-dimensional entity. That'll give them the power they need to transport you to another plane of existence. And, finally, you'll hve to brng them to Siser Psyche to complete the ritual.

Good luck. This is a big task, but I think you're up to it.

Mission Objective(s)

The eartly smell of the Devouring Earth creatures is heavy in this cave.

  • Defeat all creatures in cave

You have completed the first part of the ritual.

  • Defeat all villains in area

You have completed the second portion of the ritual.

  • Take Bands to Sister Psyche

Sister Psyche: Ah, yes; it is a simple matter to complete this ritual. It's sort of like fliping a mental switch. Yes. There you are.

The Bands of Shu are now empowered with the essence of the Egyptian goddes, Shu. It was she who kept the sky and the Earth separate. What most do not know is that she also held the task of keeping different planes of existence from folding into one another. By wearing her Bands, you can manipulate those planes and walk among them as you will.

Debriefing

I knew you hadit in you. You've empowered the bands of Shu. Now you can use them to take you to the Psychic plane and battle the Carnival there. Are you ready for that?
